EchoMew2PKMorph Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Yeah, they are cool. Did you know that you can get Flame with a Torchic design on the back? I wish I could get one.... but I already have a normal GBA. But, I might get one. I sent in the card thingy for the monthly contest....... I mean, who does not like FF? Er, slightly out of topic, but I like your Siggy..... My dad has every Rush CD and then some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Yeah, they were announced a while back. They're coming out in September. Onyx and Flame. Japan has Onyx right now, but not Flame to my knowledge. I'd wish they'd being the Pearl color here. You can get the Torchic SP off the Pokemon Center site for only $100. I figure I'll order it since I like the color (metallic orange). Someone apparently stole my SP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninjaman Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 I also heard about the Mana Blue version which you can get with the game Sword of Mana. But then again, that's for Japan. I wonder if it'll come over here in the US. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Severely doubt it. They also have a Famicom styled one for the 20th anniversary, a black and red one for the Boktai launch and so on. There are probably a dozen GBA colors in Japan at this point, maybe more. I lost count. We only saw red, fuchia, arctic, indigo and glacier. I think perhaps midnight blue at Toys R Us. So I can't see Nintendo bringing most of those over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniglefager Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 I was just about to get a platinum SP, so I'm glad I heard about this. I want to get a black GBA SP to match my gamecube lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Rugh Posted July 29, 2003 Share Posted July 29, 2003 Yeah, I saw those colors waaaay before my Nintendo Power came. The Flame one is really cool. If I ever do buy a GBA SP, that will be the one I get. I think at E3 2003, they had a showcase full of different colored GBA SP's. There was pink and yellow, among others.

Desbreko Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 [color=indigo]I am so pissed that they didn't release Onyx (black) when the SP launched. When I originally saw pictures of Japanese GBASPs, I saw Platinum, Cobalt, and Onyx. Then they didn't release Onyx in the US, so I just went for Platinum instead. Now I'm pissed that they're releasing Onyx later, after I've already bought a Platinum one. I would [i]really[/i] like an Onyx one, instead of Platinum. But hey, who knows; maybe I'll win one in the Player's Poll contest in NP, heh. I actually won an NP t-shirt one time, so it's possible.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 [color=#707875]Gah. I really want that new NES-styled GBA SP. lol It's so awesome. ^_^; Onyx and Flame have been out in Australia for a short while already, and they seem to be doing very well. SP is really Nintendo's bread and butter down here at the moment.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gavin Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 [size=1]Yeah I read about the Mana Blue one being released in Japan coinciding with the release of Sword of Mana, and the Red one being released in the U.S. as a tribute to record sales. I like the sound of the new colors, damn it, why can the Irish markets be as hot for Nintendo as most other places, I've only seen the Platinum one for sale and I bought it ages ago, but I'd maybe like to change it for the Onyx one. Bahh damn you Sony !!. [I]Swears and grumbles over Ireland's complete and unjustified loyalties to the heartless Sony Corporation.[/I][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EchoMew2PKMorph Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Yeah, I hope to win one in the player's poll too. I have never won anything, but then again, when I did want to submit one, ((a Yu-Gi-Oh one, I forgot which title it was....)) I forgot to mail it. Oh well. It kinda doesn't matter if I don't win, I already have two GCN,((My mom and dad are divorced.... one Cube at each place)) and I can always save my allowence... Wait, I ain't getting one.... darn....

EchoMew2PKMorph Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 Yeah! It's a conspiricy! I mean, I get a gameboy/Crystal version for X-Mas, ((it was a sale, buy a color, get a game)) I crush it, and dang Toys-R-Us wouldn't give me another GBC! Evil...... Anyway, they just gave us back the price we paied minus the ammount for the game, and my dad was nice enough to get me a GBA. It's the arctic color. Well, I can always give my GBA to my sis if I get an SP. She want's to get a Pokemon Sapphire, and then she will have something to play it on untill she gets bored with it and gived me her sapphire.....

But you might like it...you poor soul....And you can even make your own with whatever you want and they'll make it for you,kinda neat. Skeptical it looks good tho,lol.
